Strip Assignment

Any combination of inputs, masters and MIDI strips can be assigned to the 4 Layers of the two Fader Banks. You can 'design' your own mixing layout to suit the way you want to work.

To assign GLD fader strips, open the Strip Assign page and use your finger to drag and drop channels into the four strip Layers for each of the two fader Banks.

The factory Template Shows provide a classic layout with inputs on the left and masters on the right to give you a familiar layout as a starting point. You can edit this and store it as a Scene or your own User Show.

To assign strips - Current assignments are shown in the Bank 1 and Bank 2 tabs at the bottom of the screen, with Layer A to D tabs on the right. Use the tabs in the left of the screen to open the type of channel you want to assign to the strips. Touch a channel and drag and drop it on top of a strip position to overwrite. You can also drag channels out of the Banks to leave a blank space.

Turn on Block Select to select a range of channels to drag into the Bank. If you drop more channels than there are strips available into a Layer then they will wrap into the next layer overwriting channels currently assigned there. Changes are made immediately.

Select different channel types using the tabs on the left.

OPTIONS pull-up window

Use the pull-up to choose to sync the Layer shown on the screen with the currently selected surface Layer. Select the Bank to work with. The screen will follow the Layer currently selected on the surface for that Bank.

Note Assigning strips does not change the number of channels available. It simply links a fader strip to control the channel assigned to it. The same channel could be assigned to multiple positions across both fader banks.

MIDI strips and DAW Control

When working with a DAW (Digital Audio Workstation) it is typical to replace input channel strips with their equivalent MIDI strips. These are used to control the audio within the DAW.
